BRAINOS Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 Reporting Personnel: Preston Prestoff Job Title of Reporting Personnel: Quartermaster Game ID: b3B-bJ2n Personnel Involved: - Ephemer Mephistopheles, Chaplain (Offender) - Natalie Duponte, Cargo Technician (Victim) - Gavin Glover, CMO (Witness) - Nicholas Ramirez, Visitor (Witness) - Khaled Al-Bastaki, Head of Security (Witness) Time of Incident: Around 16:07 Stationtime Real Time: Around 05:45AM MT 2019/10/07 Location of Incident: Holodeck Nature of Incident: [x] - Workplace Hazard [x] - Accident/Injury [ ] - Destruction of Property [ ] - Neglect of Duty [x] - Harassment [x] - Assault [x] - Misconduct [ ] - Other _____ (Place an x in the box that applies. If other, replace line and specify.) Today, Mephistopheles was challenging people to the ring for sparring matches. Natalie Duponte, having recently bulked up an incredible degree, would benefit from learning how to use her new muscles. Naturally, I asked her to give the sparring a shot. In sparring, even holodeck sparring, it's common sense to use gloves or at least pull punches. A man of Mephistopheles's claimed background would know this, stating that he was a professional wrestler some time ago. Nat, of course, was pulling her punches and being safe about the match. This man, however, was not pulling his punches at all. He was delivering blow after blow full force. First, he broke Nat's nose, and she started bleeding. Of course, we assume it's part of the simulation, since it's minor and Nat had enough adrenaline in her to not distinguish the simulated pain from the real pain. The fight keeps going. Nat knocked the man down at least four or five times, until she started to get dizzy and looked like she was about to pass out. Mephistopheles, likely frustrated that Natalie was winning the sparring match, was delivering his blows with full force and clear malicious intent. Natalie repeatedly attempted to throw the man off of her and end the fight, but he was relentless. This is around the time Ramirez and I saw something was wrong - and then Nat fell over. Mephistopheles kept punching and kicking. We literally heard her skull crack open, we rushed in there to get her out. Natalie Duponte's skull cracked open - it was the most sickening sound I've ever heard in my career. Any sane person would have stopped. This man did not stop. We rushed her to medical and the doctor who operated on her, Gavin Glover, the Chief Medical Officer, can testify: her skull was broken, she suffered multiple broken ribs and she would likely have died had the fight gone on. A lengthy, delicate and potentially dangerous surgery was required and Natalie was fortunate to make a recovery. Mephistopheles knowingly beat Natalie within an inch of her life. To make matters far worse than they already were, he then claimed that Natalie was perfectly fine, and being overdramatic about her injuries. He claimed that Natalie did the exact same to him. Unless Mephistopheles is capable of gluing his own skull together, I doubt these claims of his. Mephistopheles's dishonesty severely interfered with the investigation and nearly allowed him to get away, were it not for the Head of Personnel investigating our accounts of the situation more thoroughly and inquiring with Security. Khaled Al-Bastaki, the Head of Security, can verify the man was charged with Gross Negligence. Upon release, Mephistopheles continued to harass my department and my workers, coming to order boxing gloves, make snide remarks to Natalie Duponte and generally do everything he could to actively bait us into losing our temper. Mephistopheles even went as far as to deface and vandalize his own chapel, and then blame it on the Cargo crew while we were busy drafting up this very incident report, discussing everything with the Head of Personnel. This wasted the Head of Security's time, requiring him to come down to Cargo, call for a meeting, and tell us not to deface a chapel he knows we didn't touch. Mephistopheles is either mentally unfit to work here or knowingly, intentionally, and unremorsefully made an attempt on Natalie Duponte's life. Did you report it to a Head of Department or IAA? If so, who?: Yes, to Pish'Kin Dolv'Qotav Actions taken: Begged with security to charge the man to no avail until talking to the HoP, who inquired into the situation. It wasn't until the HoP's inquiries the man charged with Gross Negligence and no else. Additional Notes: None. This is thorough. OOC Comments: Boy howdy. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go for an IR or a PC. I'd like to keep this nice and IC, because I like my immersion, but... phew. For one, I have the guy saying he never uses the pull-punches verb. And at the end of the shift, on the Odin, even, he repeatedly bump-spammed Nat and called her a cunt. Aaaand in this same round, on extended, this guy was warned not to spar any longer - and set up an unsanctioned fighting ring in maintenance, lured a miner into there (Cooper, I believe), and stabbed him in the eyes with a screwdriver. Dude legit was a troll the entire round and ruined what could have been a fun 3 hours in a chill extended round by effectively self-antagging. He consistently harassed the Cargo crew, lied to Sec, and got off nearly scot-free for attempted murder on an extended round. It's tough to know whether or not, as a group (because so many of us were involved), we wanted to go for an IR or PC, but I'd like to try out an IR and see if this guy is invested enough in the server and HRP setting to go along with the legal and bureaucratic ramifications that come with caving someone's skull in and stabbing someone's eyes out. If this guy actually goes along with the whole IR business, that'll at least salvage some entertainment from the situation.
